[Article background: this is another in the series of phone hacking articles the Judiciary Report has published, regarding a scandal I broke first in October 2005, via a police complaint I filed with the Metropolitan Police in London, England. 90 people have been arrested by the Metropolitan Police since the time I filed the complaint. However, the Murdochs and other key conspirators remain free and the FBI has not arrested anyone, though the crimes began and continue in News Corp's New York headquarters]

The Guardian newspaper in London is reporting, "Rebekah Brooks,

David Cameron's former spin doctor, have lost a last ditch attempt to

The Judiciary Report welcomes the news, as too many people have been

misbehavior is acceptable and engaging in conduct that ruins lives -
including your own - as we've see via the arrests in the case.

Friday 28 June 2013 09.17 EDT - Former News International boss and
David Cameron's former spin doctor go to court of appeal in bid to halt
prosecutions. Rebekah Brooks, the former chief executive of News
International, and Andy Coulson, David Cameron's former spin doctor,
have lost a last ditch attempt to get their prosecution over alleged
phone hacking dropped.

The court of appeal on Friday morning made the ruling after Coulson
sought to have the hacking case against him removed on the grounds that
the law did not extend to voicemails that had already been listened
to...

Lord Judge allowed the names of the Weeting defendants to be
reported today on the grounds that there was no one in the country who
did not know who they were. "We must not be unrealistic. There can
hardly be anyone in the country who does not know to whom this case
applies." He also refused leave to appeal to the supreme court...
